Richard is looking Sharp in the white treach coat. I like how Timothee and rest of the other actors are listening intently as he's speak so eloquently about his movie.

[@94dfk1]

No offense to Mahershala Ali, but the Oscar should go to Grant.

[@ericastreet6589]

I could listen to Mr. Grant talk all day. I’d want to ask him questions about growing up in Swaziland. I lived there for a short time.

[@InsaneKahuna]

dont forgivd or daye or live with jnbred hicns

[@POObumpoopo]

You should see the movie he made about his childhood there (it's called Wah Wah).

[@stereotypea123]

He talks a lot about this with Terry Gross on his recent Fresh Air interview on NPR 👍

[@esquibelle]

Withnail & I ~ One of the genius performances of film history. Richard E. Grant ~ bow down :)

[@calvinlaw7790]

Really hope he wins the Oscar.

[@eu_lucasfer]

I love his style.

[@abhirajcollar]

Richat e grant, the most deserving actor of nominations

[@austinkjung]

he is such a lovely man ... strong performance in the film

[@complicatedairflow7237]

I want/ need Richard's coat

[@SuperRobertoClemente]

Absolutely rockin' it. That's an art, the right coat for the right dude. That said I want Withnail's coat, this one is too posh! ;-)

[@aiai-j7i]

I want/need Richard! :)

[@aiai-j7i]

@@SuperRobertoClemente Didn't Withnail's come from Savil Row?

[@ianlovesmickey9658]

Me too. He's looking sharp.

[@MV-eh3xf]

That coat is 🙌🏽

[@Winduct]

Classic Bond villain, right here.

[@PretentiousStuff]

nah, there's something about him that makes him hard to hate

[@kevlow9494]

Four of these men at the table will be competing for an Oscar soon..

[@SleepFan771]

Richard E. Grant should play Werner Herzog in a biopic!

[@allys744]

I was just thinking they DO look crazily similar!!

[@MrsBungle78]

Ugh...Richard E. Grant is fantastic.

[@julievanberkel3058]

Such a good actor and personable guy - I just want to kiss his forehead! great smile. :)

[@aiai-j7i]

At 0:47 the host interrupts, feels inclined to ask a question in order to move the conversation along or to get to the point. It is clear this was not necessary at all. He should trust the emotional intelligence of his guests and in particular of Richard E. Grant. Listen to how beautifully he weaved the importance of trying to understand marginalized people, of acknowledging their wisdom-- which is often drowned in our mainstream culture-- into the theme of compassion and love.

[@PalmurcioWorld]

Grant deserved that Oscar

[@downhilltwofour0082]

This was a beautiful scene. Watching these fine actors showing so much respect for each other, not one trying to be the center of attention, while listening respectfully.

[@pygiana16]

Everyone is hanging on his every word, listening to him with riveted attention. Now that is presence.

[@garavo1]

apsolutely love him, wish he was more in films (I am sure he feels the same haha)

[@sensationalgaming6602]

Just release the whole damn video already, what you makin us wait for????😭😭😭😭

[@npe9483]

This is all thats left once they cut out the interruptions from the host.

[@sensationalgaming6602]

NPE 94 That’s probably exactly what happened 😂😂😂

[@Ray3645]

It's out there somewhere, because I watched it.

[@SkyeSterzingerhovioli]

am i the only one who remembers him from the little vampire? lmao

[@RandomIsMyLif3]

Vampire daddy

[@pam0626]

Richard’s style game is so on point.

[@richfictionfighter]

Richard E Grant and Hugh Jackman were in Logan together

[@estadoagridulce]

loveeeeee him

[@nlb1138]

I bet he's totally going to be playing a high ranking first order officer in episode 9

[@jessica5497]

What a daddy

[@aiai-j7i]

Wonderful man!

[@philippeh3904]

He was in spice world, Gosford park, Logan, he’s been in everything

[@BadHattie]

Withnail and I, that's THE performance to watch. He is so charming and selfish and cowardly and lovable in that movie.

[@sjw5797]

"Low self-esteem on one hand and a large ego on the other", also known as narcissism.

[@philippeh3904]

He might actually win the Oscar, I’ve been hearing that people can’t decide whether to give it to him or to Marhershala again

[@PretentiousStuff]

how the hell does he have a white microphone on him? Did they specifically order a white mic knowing he'd be wearing a white coat? Everyone else has regular black mics on them wtf

[@garse70]

ТурбоТОП he brings his own

[@joshuagarbett]

Richard E Grant All my life I feel like I’ve upset you Or hurt you in some way I am very very sorry if this is the case I wouldn’t ever hurt you and I’m sorry for anything I might say or do in the future
